When Israel's Glazer and his guest partner took the curtain call together, Qu Haiyao was doing his No.20 eight deep breaths below.The staff checked his equipment for the last time, and Rong Yi had been arranged in advance to appear when the lights went down.The whole stage will change quickly in a very short period of time, and when the preparations are ready...

Qu Haiyao's earphones let him enter the arena.

He felt his heartbeat increase to one hundred and six in an instant, and his hands were cold.He took a deep breath one last time, stepped onto the stage with smooth steps that surprised even himself, and walked towards the microphone stand that had been standing there waiting for him.The audience in the venue all put on masks according to the arrangement of the program group. Qu Haiyao looked down from the stage, as if he was surrounded and stared at by unknown creatures. He tried his best to control his heart that was about to explode. , took a deep breath for the last time, and there was welcome and expectant applause from the audience around.

It was dark on and off the stage, and their only performance track was played in both Chinese and English on the live broadcast screen and the live monitor:

"GoldenSunlight", Golden Sunlight.Qu Haiyao closed his eyes, quietly waiting for the intoxicating sound of plucking the strings.

Like a drop of mercury falling on the surface of mirror-like water, the plucked sound of the classical guitar fluctuated the air in the entire concert hall, magically bringing the scene back to the night lingering with the intoxicating smell of alcohol. There is no way to jump in the wet air, only to fall and roll like teardrops.

And the piano sound added lightly is like the steps that make those teardrops roll.The gloomy light on the other side of the stage lit up at this moment, and the figure in white costume sitting in front of the piano and playing appeared on everyone's retinas.

Rong Yi raised her eyes, her dexterous fingers danced lightly on the keys, and her eyes looked straight at Qu Haiyao. Qu Haiyao was about to jump [-] to meet the sharp and steady eyes that seemed to have substance. His heartbeat miraculously slowed down.The moment the eyes meet, it seems that all the audience seats have disappeared, only the stage still exists in this world.And on the stage, there were only the two of them.

Qu Haiyao slowly brought his lips closer to the microphone, gently vibrating his vocal cords like a butterfly flapping its wings.

"The inadvertently pierced halo

dripping cold blood

cold darkening is that

like a dream

Only when you see clearly can you hide in panic

too dazzling

stumbled and fled in embarrassment

who's weak

Causality

And lies

director

coax

Performance

near and far

is the spot

is debris

is cold wind

is long night

disappear"

The flickering sound from the sound tree plucking awakens the audience from the wet and sticky illusion. Rong Yi's fingertips fly across the keys to bring up a series of arpeggios. It was smashed, and then drew a light arc to the lower part, making a powerful and passionate tom drum sound of one mallet and one eighth note.

The bright yellow light fell on the stage like the sun, and the instrumental orchestra suddenly exerted force, and the original thin but heavy grievance song suddenly became rich in structure.A confident smile appeared on the corner of Qu Haiyao's lips, and his eyebrows were slightly raised. With a deft and sassy movement, he shook off the bunt suit outside, revealing the dazzling bright red Victorian shirt inside.

"HA!" With a very short yell, Qu Haiyao simply and neatly removed the microphone on the shelf, and swished to the side of Rongyi's piano like stepping on a skateboard, and inserted it with one hand. The hand holding the microphone rests its elbow on the side of the piano casually, and the straightforward and upright silhouette is reflected on everyone's retina like a painting.

Rong Yi raised his eyelids to look at him, and when their eyes met, the two laughed at the same time, even they themselves didn't know what they were laughing at, but the intensified warm atmosphere was just like mercury pouring out of the two people's smiles. Spread over the entire stage, the entire concert hall.

"Red is the red when the sunrise breaks the darkness

The heat surges and dances with freshness

tip of the knife falls into

Boiling heart fire

splash free and easy"

With a bit of frivolous vitality and enthusiasm, Qu Haiyao sang it with an unbelievably vivid demeanor and attitude.At this time, he is no longer an actor at all, he is not playing anyone, he is just singing himself.During so many rehearsals, Qu Haiyao was full of thoughts on how to sing this song well, but when he actually got to the stage and the finals, he suddenly realized that this song didn't matter to him at all. , because it is my own song, no matter how I sing it, it is unbelievably good.

While singing, Qu Haiyao stared closely at Rong Yi sitting in front of the piano.Sensing Qu Haiyao's scorching gaze, Rong Yi raised her face, tilted her head slightly and smiled at the front left seat, and the elegant and extravagant air suddenly changed into dazzling arrogance and wildness.

"Plant a vivid

law of all kinds

shoots swarming

Shuttle between soil

Rapid spread

Break through the hole of fame and fortune"

This is the first time Rong Yi has sung in this performance.Originally he was good at the mid-bass range, and the opening line was too high-pitched for him, but he had a breakthrough discussion with Cen Guanyin during the rehearsal, giving up the chest voice he was used to, and using the head voice instead. to sing.Originally, Rong Yi always felt that his voice was deep and hoarse, and the effect of his head voice was not good, but now, from what Qu Haiyao heard, although Rong Yi's head voice was not clear and bright, it produced a kind of aura due to the aggravation of nasal voice. Charming resonance, and each tail sound is like a hook, which perfectly outlines a silhouette that is both arrogant and wild, yet elegant and stable.

"Thought it was a weed

But all over the wild viburnum

flower leaves and vines

one after another"

The two separated their voices and began the chorus.Due to the relationship between the stage lighting and the positions of the two of them, Qu Haiyao's whole body was bathed in bright yellow light, while Rong Yi, like his voice, was only fainted by the light into a clear silhouette, but Qu Haiyao's He couldn't take his eyes off Rong Yi.

At this moment, on the highly anticipated stage, recorded by all-round photography, Qu Haiyao suddenly remembered that night in Fontaine Ruiya when he was drunk, his eyes were shaking and he was looking at Rong Yi on the crystal stage in the crowd. Rong Yi at that time was as dazzling as now, and the drunk self that night had already stood beside Rong Yi, appearing in the same shot as him.

Rong Yi's eyes with dark gold eye makeup also looked at Qu Haiyao.I don't know why, but on such an impossible occasion, under such dazzling and scorching lights, Qu Haiyao somehow came up with a kind of thought that has been tolerated. The illusion is fully captured.An electric shock made his soul tremble, and Qu Haiyao suddenly understood two things.

The first one is why Rong Yi still has deep feelings for the stage after leaving the band and the music industry for so long.The stage is like another world. No matter what the real world is like, the stage can give you an unimaginable sense of satisfaction like falling into the clouds. It seems that although it is impossible, Qu Haiyao still feels that this moment is so beautiful. I understand myself completely.

And the second thing is that he finally realized belatedly that this song was actually a gift, a gift that he had never dared to think of before, and was willing to give him.Rong Yi didn't say anything, maybe he didn't even realize what kind of mood he was holding to write this song, but the singer felt it, felt that Rong Yi was happy for himself, and this was A pleasure with a very tolerant personal style.While looking down on Qu Haiyao's ups and downs in the past two years with a cold perspective that is almost on the sidelines, he tried his best to turn himself into Qu Haiyao, to feel Qu Haiyao's heart, to cheer and shout with Qu Haiyao's heart , Go to joy, sorrow, sorrow.

When writing the song, Rong Yi must be acting as Qu Haiyao in his mind. With this unexpected gift, Qu Haiyao got a glimpse of himself in Rong Yi's heart.

Weak, unyielding, and brilliant growth, he thought that he must be passionate enough to leave traces in Rong Yi's gaze, making Rong Yi willing to share some—perhaps a lot—the tenderness and patience that others can't imagine .Qu Haiyao didn't know if this was a blessing in disguise, but now as long as he looked at Rong Yi, his heart would overflow with self-confidence for no reason.

The bright yellow stage lights spread grandly from the side, just like the sun involuntarily spread to the earth, and the stars involuntarily spread to the universe.Qu Haiyao and Rong Yi's whole bodies were finally enveloped in the same ray of light. The string array and thick percussion instrument array reflected a magnificent momentum, light and sound, standing and sitting, red and white, they and the world.

They are the world.
